I enjoyed most progression until the second tier of research. While I think some folks would enjoy the tedium, I found the interface and pathing tools to fall short of what would have kept me in this game.
At $10, this game would be a good value for that first portion of content. And maybe someone will make a mod that helps out the ui or cheapens the second tier of research so it's not such a mess trying to arrange. So it may still be worth it to pick up and sit on if the game is on a great sale price

It's an amazing game, but has it flaws. Optimazing your setup, building logical gates is amazing, but also it's tidious from time to time, and at one point game is very slow, and achieving anything is quite hard.

I honestly really enjoyed this game. I came from dyson sphere program, so finding an automation game where resources are limited and a bunch of different worlds can be explored, i fell in love. Its cool to not have conveyor belts and have them replaced by ant trails (I think of them as pheremone trails), which is a really cool concept. I also found it cool how you have to feed the queen to get to different stages of an actual ant colony. Each stage means more larva per minute.
I do hate the fact that resource piles are so small, meaning you have to babysit the deposits until they are ready to be moved again. If you dont notice the stockpile of glass, mold, iron, ect ended 20 minutes ago EVEN THOUGH you just set it up 8 minutes ago. You're going to come back to a bunch of things not working and the dread setting in.
Although my biggest problem with the game is how reliant all of your research becomes after you unlock gynes. Gynes are created through a gyne cocoon and are comprised of different castes ants to create them. When you get to this stage, things really start to slow down. Creating gynes takes a while, and its hard to create them quickly without having to use fresh ants. so usually every nuptual flight you get 2-4 gynes out per flight. Even if you use the thumper it doesnt change how many gynes are being created. And the addition of the other regal gyne kind of made me lose my sanity. To change this, i think you should get rid of the regal gyne entirely to keep the sanity of others.
Overall i would give this game a 7/10. Its not neccesarily bad, but i think it needs some tweaks overall.

For what is supposed to be a finished game, this is seriously lacking in the QoL department. No copy and paste in a 2024 building / automation game ? What ? The whole building rotation / placement thing makes building anything extremely tedious. Another game where it is clear the developers do not play their game. It's unfortunate, as the idea and art work are really compelling, but mechanically, it fails on so many levels and ends up a tedious, repetitive mess.
